Review
"This book is like Mal - who is a rider, a rocker and a rebel. He doesn't just think outside the box - he drags it behind his Harley on a cross-continent adventure and then runs over it a few times for good measure. The Bay and Wall Street guys are gonna hate it - Main Streeters should embrace it. One ton of fun!" BJ Del Conte Chase Producer, BNN - Business News Network Business Producer/Anchor - CP24-

Avoid natural gas companies despite bounce in energy sector.

First gold, then COPPER in market rebound for resource stocks.
Perhaps the (quiet) rally in gold has been telling us something. Commodity prices typically rise with inflation, and it shouldn’t be a surprise that they tend to be leading indicator – since actual real-time demand tends to occur before the … Continue reading

It seems the experts are finally catching up to me. The US Energy Information Administration has revised down its outlook for fuels demand due to the coronavirus outbreak and it’s looking bleak (for producers) and great (for consumers). “EIA estimates … Continue reading
